John Higgins attends SCARdiff 2013

SCARdiff is a brand new horror expo co-produced by Fantasy Events, horror author Wayne Simmons and Shock Horror Magazine. This is a one day event taking place at the Mercure Holland Hotel Cardiff on Sunday 27th October 2013

This will be a multi channel fan event featuring writers, publishers, comic book artists, actors, special effects artists and directors. The format will be interactive with workshops, Q&A panels and film screenings throughout the day. Confirmed guests so far include Dominic Brunt and Joanne Mitchell (BEFORE DAWN), bestselling horror author David Moody (AUTUMN, HATER) and director Simeon Halligan (SPLINTERED).

What’s the 2000AD connection you ask? Well, hopefully there will be a few more to announce nearer the time, but for now we can confirm that the awesome John Higgins will be a Special Guest at this mini-expo, which frankly, is enough of a reason to go for us

Tickets are now on sale at the official SCARdiff website at the special price of £6.66, for the next 30 days (and nights) only – see what they did there??

Updates will also be added as they happen to the Facebook page, and the Twitter feed.

More Judge Anderson?

As taken from the Flash Bang Wallop Facebook page, here’s a new pic of Lauren Integra in Judge Anderson mode.

And before everyone goes nuts, YES… they do know they got the shoulder pads the wrong way round. Don’t sweat it. Psi Judges are allowed to piss about with the rules.

Anyway, this is apparently one of a full photoshoot so keep an eye on their page for more updates

Bristol Expo (addendum)

Here’s Henry Flint and Ben Willsher showing off the sketches that they did for each other in the hotel bar on Saturday evening. The light was utterly shocking (hence poor quality photo’s – sorry!) but look at what they pulled out of the bag in that rotten light – Phwoar!

Things to make you go …Hmmm!

 
So, going through some old progs and this image popped up. It’s from Prog 737. Where have I seen this before?

Of course!!!!

It’s the Bolland cover for Dredd v Predator. Earthlet Tim Whiteman’s image predates Bollands by at least 6-7 years. Strange coincidence? Or a thing that makes you go…Hmmm?
